Running AIs on your own machine lets you stick it to the man and save some cash in the process Feature After a decade or two of the cloud, we're used to paying for our computing capability by the megabyte. As AI takes off, the whole cycle promises to repeat itself again, and while AI might seem relatively cheap now, it might not always be so.…

The FreeBSD project on Friday published their quarterly status report to highlight all of the interesting changes for Q2'2025. Among the recent FreeBSD efforts have been on "bsd-user-4-linux" to allow FreeBSD binaries to run unmodified on Linux systems. FreeBSD is also coming up with a policy around AI/LLM usage for contributing to the project. Additionally, Sylve is taking shape as a new web-based unified system management platform for FreeBSD systems...

Platform's staffer complains security review was 'rushed' Microsoft-owned collaborative coding platform GitHub is deepening its ties with Elon Musk's xAI, bringing early access to the company's Grok Code Fast 1 large language model (LLM) into GitHub Copilot.

Container technology has matured rapidly, but in 2025, two tools still dominate conversations in developer communities: Docker and Podman. Both tools are built on OCI (Open Container Initiative) standards, meaning they can build, run, and manage the same types of images. However, the way they handle processes, security, and orchestration differs dramatically. This article breaks down everything developers need to know, from architectural design to CLI compatibility, performance, and security, with a focus on the latest changes in both ecosystems.

AAEON has released the MIX-MTLD1, a Mini-ITX motherboard featuring Intel Core Ultra processors, Intel Arc graphics, and an on-chip AI Boost NPU.
